Medigap & Medicare Advantage

We at SkyBlue Insurance know that finding the best Medicare plan isn’t easy. The whole process can be somewhat overwhelming. This informative article will explain some of the more confusing parts of Medigap or Medicare Advantage.

Medicare Supplement Insurance (also called Medigap Insurance) is a plan that covers “gaps” in your original Healthcare Insurance policy. You cannot be sold a Medigap Insurance plan if you already have Medicare Advantage, Medicare Part A, or Medicare Part B.

What is Medicare Advantage Insurance?

Medicare Advantage Insurance (also called Medicare Part C) is a type of HMO or PPO policy that combines Medicare Part A & B (and usually Part D).

What is Medicare Part A& B?

Medicare A & B are two plans that fall under the Original Medicare bracket. Part A is a plan that covers hospital visits and anything related to hospitals. Part B covers doctor’s office visits or any other type of visit to a healthcare provider.

What is Part D?

Part D is an Original Medicare plan that covers prescription drugs. Most Medicare Advantage Insurance plans also provide coverage similar to Part D.
